[OOC] Maximum Comics – Insurrection \ CLOSED

[Gowi]

I see Henry got my PM, good to have you around if so.

@Gowi

I'll put together a CS. Do we have more players than the three of us?

@HenryJonesJr

I'm in a skype group with a few interested parties, but not a whole lot. Maybe you should convince the Hypesters to return and reign supreme? Be awesome to see Byrd, Eddie, and watnot in this. I talked to Andy the other night, not sure what he thinks yet.

@Gowi

Byrd seems like he might be out of games altogether. He's been away from the Hype for a while.

[Gowi]

I see him lurking all the time. So I don't know, maybe he's waiting for an itch to suit him.

@Gowi

He's been around on the Guild? Though mostly in more politically minded nation RPs from what I've seen.

He also has a cool Doug MacArthur avatar.

[AndyC]

Damn it. Damn it, damn it, damn it, damnitdamnitdamnitdamnitdamnitdamnitdamnit.

............I want in.

[Enarr]

This was most unexpected.. but: Dibs on Daredevil.

@Nightrunner

We'll have to talk. Our origins are intertwined.

[AndyC]

CS has been sent to Gowi, and I believe is approved. Considering potential for a second CS as well, but let's not get ahead of ourselves just yet.

[Gowi]

Rachel Roth is obviously approved, yep.

[FacePunch]

Now this looks interesting. I do have a question, though:

How much can we change a character? What if we wanted to, for example, make Harvey Dent Batman, instead of Bruce Wayne? Would something along those lines be considered acceptable?@Sloth@Gowi

[Gowi]

Have a burning desire to write The Question as a hard-nosed police detective serving a hierarchy he doesn't care for? Maybe you have a unique take on The Whizzer you wish to explore. A concept in which Slade Wilson, not a mercenary but a successful military man, struggles to become President? The opportunities are endless.

- the OP

With that said, I think I agree with Andy from a conversation we had when we were running the Ultimate DC game back almost a year and a half ago. The content of said conversation is that we should not look for "experimental ideas" but quality ones. If a concept is strange and well-written as well as devised it could very well be accepted, yes, as that is what I'm looking for. For example in this game's predecessor I turned Tony Stark into Green Lantern taking influence from Marvel/DC's amalgam imprint, so that is the level of liberties to say about it.

So it's really on a case-by-case basis, but I am more privy to "traditional" concepts since I've seen some truly strange and mind-numbing ones in the past.

@Gowi

Moon Knight, otherwise known as Jason Todd!

@Gowi

Noted. Thanks. I'll try my best to keep things reasonable, and well written if I follow through with my current idea. I might have to mull over it for a few days, though..

[HenryJonesJr]

My CS should be done today.

Nightrunner, I'll PM you the parts that are pertinent to your character once its done.

[Enarr]

Alright, bros. I'mma get started.

[Gowi]

I have a few sheets to touch up, so I can confirm that I am indeed playing them.

[Enarr]

Just confirming that Indie comics are included, right?

Are the details for the defenders worked out to any extent?

Also, is the IC set in 2010?

Lastly, can either Byrd's or Andy's methods to OCs be applied here?

[HenryJonesJr]

My CS has been PM'd to Gowi. Considering another character, but I want to see where the rest of the players fall first.

Also, is the IC set in 2010?

@Nightrunner

Yea, I wondered about this as well.
